Your quality control supervisor is adorable. Great job on the tombstones.
Walmart Exterior Latex Paint is GREAT... for anything outdoors...
i find that sanding the foam before you etch into it helps the paint stick to it- it adheres better
they look awesome!! I am inspired. thanks
Really awesome. I don't have any garden nor house to get crazy with outdoor decorations, but I still enjoy watching videos like this. :)
Thank you! Glad you like them!
These turned out great!
You all did so great with these! They are beautiful works of art. Will attempt to make some lol
Very awesome videos & Tombstones!! In my opinion, I would not have tried the Lichen or Moss (at least smaller amounts of moss). They still turned out AWESOME !!
Yeah. It’s not my favorite either, I just wanted to show some different approaches.
These are awesome! Great work!
Thanks!
Damn! I'm too lazy to make things that are this complicated, but wow. You're amazing !
Thanks! Glad you like it!
Wow mental ❤❤❤
This is really great!!! I can't say enough good things about this video. I've been making Halloween stuff for Haunted houses and Yard Haunts for years and this is really informative and has lots of different techniques , very easy to follow along. Thanks 👻🎃
Thanks for saying so! I love hearing when people find things useful! Thanks so much.
fantastic! thanks for sharing your talent. I make my own tombstones as well. I will definatley try the drylock and sand.
Thanks! Hope you find the technique helpful
Excellent job on these!
Thanks so much! Glad you like them.
Another great video!! I love how it was a family affair - had a tombstone painting party w/the family! This is exactly what I was looking for. I made a couple tombstone but the coloring & aging effect was missing. I can't wait to try your painting methods out. Thanks again!
Thanks again! I hope your tombstones turn out great!
Amazing
Thanks!
👍👀
Awesome videoS !!!
Those came out absolutely amazing!
QUESTION….. in the last video you showed how to put your PVC piping in between and etc. BUT you don’t show in either video
How do you put STEAK them actually into the ground ?
Thank you so much for all of the time that you put into both of these videos and all the helpful information 👍
To stake them, I just hammer a rebar or wooden dowel into the ground. Then you can just slide the tombstone over it. The rebar goes in the PVC pipe.
And Thank you!

Thank you 😊 👍
Now I’ll be waiting to see if you make a video on how to make a casket ⚰️
That’s a great Idea! It definitely on my list!
What is the font that you used on "one does not simply walk into mordor?
Awesome ideas. I make my own every year but am always last minute.
How do you keep the paint from washing off in the rain? Do you seal the final product with clear coat of some kind?
I also have used fleckstone spray or spray stone to create the texture. It’s expensive though as I go through about a can per tombstone.
Thanks! The paint is waterproof so rain is not a problem and no need to seal - though we don’t get much rain usually in October. The drylock itself is actually a weatherproofer. The paint has never weathered in Tombstones I’ve had for more than 10 years.
Where did you find all of the minions?
If I make this decoration for an indoor environment (party), can I use regular paint mixed with sand?
I’m not sure what you consider regular paint, but you could use house paint or acrylic paint. They would bind well with sand. But tempera, gauche, and watercolor paints will not. Spray paint will dissolve the foam.
One question... Did you seal them from the weather?
No I didn’t do anything extra. I live in California and we don’t get much weather this time of year. But the dry lock paint actually seals them so they don’t need additional sealing usually.
I’m sure they’re not heavy but just curious approximately how much do you think they weigh?
The biggest weighs just under a pound. Most weigh right around half a pound.
Oh wow they’re light! Gonna give it a shot, thanks for the idea!
You sell these?
I’m glad you like them. Sadly I don’t sell them. I think if I were to, they would be prohibitively expensive for most people.
@@ImNotBoredImCreative lol you are probably right! They are awesome!!
